Chapter 222 Power Outage

The two brothers exchanged a glance, and just then, Li Susu opened the kitchen door, came out with a spatula, and asked a question.

Would you like the fish steamed or braised?

Before the two brothers could speak, Li Susu muttered something to herself.

"Let's steam it; that's the best way to cook fish."

After muttering to herself, she went back to the kitchen.

Li Chenglin smiled helplessly, "Steamed? Su Su, this doesn't seem like a welcome dinner for me, it seems like she specially made it for a patient."

Speaking of patients, among these three, only Fu Xingzhou is a patient.

Sure enough, the next moment, Li Chenglin immediately began to ask Fu Xingzhou about the reason for his injury.

"What happened to your injury? Where are you hurt?"

Fu Xingzhou pondered for a moment, then gave an irrelevant answer.

"It's fine now."

Li Chenglin could tell that he didn't want to talk about it, so he decided not to ask.

Li Susu had been busy all night preparing a large table of dishes, which looked very sumptuous.

Fu Xingzhou was ill and could not drink alcohol, so neither of the brothers drank either.

Time flies when you're chatting and laughing at the dinner table.

However, the two did not stay for long before answering their respective phone calls and leaving early.

Li Susu looked at the untouched dishes on the table and felt a pang of heartache.

She spent the whole night making this, so it absolutely cannot be wasted.

Seeing her engrossed in eating, Fu Xingzhou also developed a bit of an appetite.

Because of his recent injury, he has been eating only bland and watery food, and his mouth has lost all taste of salt.

However, the dishes that Li Susu prepared looked very light, but they tasted quite delicious.

Steamed fish is indeed delicious.

There was also freshly stewed chicken soup, which emitted a rich aroma as soon as it was served.

"Unfortunately, my two older brothers are both busy, so this chicken soup will have to go to you!"

Li Susu gave a soft hum, her tone sounding indifferent.

In fact, this pot of chicken soup was indeed made for Fu Xingzhou.

Nutritious and nourishing soups are most beneficial for patients.

As Li Susu spoke, she had already served Fu Xingzhou a bowl of chicken soup and looked at him expectantly.

"Try it quickly, it shouldn't be too hot anymore."

Fu Xingzhou smiled slightly, picked up the soup spoon, and took a bite.

It was indeed delicious, and it was no longer too hot.

The timing and heat were just right.

Food made with care is indeed delicious.

"very nice."

"I know you helped me with the bidding process, thank you."

Li Susu's ears burned, and although she was a little embarrassed, she finally managed to say thank you.

Fu Xingzhou raised an eyebrow, not surprised that the other party knew these things.

"You cooked this whole meal tonight just to thank me?"

"Didn't you say this was your older brother's welcome dinner?"

When Li Susu's thoughts were exposed, her cheeks flushed red.

"You...you shouldn't overthink it!"

"Thud—"

As soon as Li Susu finished speaking, everything went dark.

She let out a soft gasp instinctively and threw herself into Fu Xingzhou's arms, trembling.

Fu Xingzhou curled his lips into a smile in the darkness and patted Li Susu's back twice to comfort her.

"There must be a power outage. Are you that afraid of the dark?"

Li Susu breathed a sigh of relief, but when people are under great tension, they always scare themselves.

Just as she was about to leave Fu Xingzhou's embrace, she suddenly heard some strange noises and instinctively wrapped her arms tightly around Fu Xingzhou's waist.

"There's a sound—"
